Listen, one thing about us is, that we're going to fawn over a bomb lip combo. Though it's a staple for many makeup looks year-round, with the dropping temps and full embrace of nude and earthy colors, if you haven't tried it already, lip combos feel like a must for cozy girl fall makeup routines. And while we can appreciate the solo lip product looks, the lip combo routine is mean and, as a lip pencil meets lip product and creates an elevated lip look you had no idea you needed, it makes you realize the perfect pairings do exist.


Simply put, a lip combo is a combination of applying and layering any lip product in a specific order to create a new lip look. These days, the internet makes it easy to decipher the lip liner and lip color, gloss, balm, tint, or oil of choice that got some of our favorite girlies' pout games on point. Find the lip combo duo of your dreams by scrolling through some of the best lip combo duos ever.
